Everyone that I know who knows who The Addams family is knows them from the 1960s TV show or the 90s movies. A few people from this game. But basically nobody that I know knew that The Addams Family was a comic. For real, do you know anybody who knew that? I sure didn't.

Neither did this week's guest Michael Bivens from Silent Journeys. But he very much did know about the old TV show. I'm really glad I had someone for this episode that grew up with the show a lot more than I did.

Learn such things as:

• The fun non continuity of early television
• Between this and The Munsters, who ripped off who?
• How many games let you downgrade a weapon?
• And so much more!

You can find the guest at MS Bivens.com (which includes his wonderful Silent journeys podcast) and and on Twitter @MSBivens_.
